The Wisconsin Petition and Stipulation to Waive Appearance and Hearing is a form used by attorneys to waive a court appearance and hearing. This form is used when both parties in a legal matter agree to the outcome and don't want to go through a formal court hearing. The petitioner (the party who files the petition) and the respondent (the party against whom the petition is filed) both sign the form in order to waive their right to a court hearing. By signing the form, they are agreeing to the understanding that the court will make a decision based on the information and evidence presented in the petition. There are two types of Wisconsin Petition and Stipulation to Waive Appearance and Hearing: 1. Petition and Stipulation to Waive Appearance and Hearing for Divorce: This form is used when both parties in a divorce case agree to the terms of the divorce and don't want to go through a court hearing. 2. Petition and Stipulation to Waive Appearance and Hearing for Child Support: This form is used when both parties in a child support case agree to the amount of child support and don't want to go through a court hearing.
